30 years ago Cools, we had a little Blues Club in 'The Park'. We booked the old CWA hall and it was held every 3rd Monday night of the month. Anyone that played got free piss for the night. Was great times indeed.
One cold winters night Mr Borich and most of his band he was touring with just happened to walk into the joint. He played a few songs and enjoyed our hospitallity. I have photos of the night with quigs on backing vocals and tamborine belting out a brilliant rendition of Lil' Red Rooster.

I think you'll find that big Daz was at nein before Rabbits. Rabs was with 10 at the time.Big Darryl - he was a goodun.
Dazz was commentating up in Newcastle for NBN 3 ... then he went down to Nein.
Didn't he replace Ray Warren for a few years?
Yep quigs - major heart attack at a surf carnival.Also didn't he nearly leave us quite a few years ago after suffering a bad hearty at some surf club he belonged too. (testing me old memory agin' )
I don't think he replaced anyone ole chum .BBB, who did he replace, (me memories gorne on this) ..... I know they advertised him as an unknown sports commentator from Newcastle. But I was up at Gloucester at the time and I knew of him before he went south.
I am pretty sure he did the commentary on the Newcastle televised league games.
Twas but a long time ago.

Big Dazza east lake has gone.
Loved his commentary
Especially when the 12th man pulled the piss out of him.
Pearce off jack
Gibbs on
Brian Henry Hooper
Bass player for the Beasts of Bourbon, and Kim Salmon and the Surrealists amongst others.
Personally one of my major influences in playing bass. When he was on it was something else.
I guess I won't be seeing that $20 from the year 2000 now will I!
One of the REAL HARD rockers!
RIP Hoops.
Twas a scary day all round, but worth it!I dropped acid at the first big day out and went to see the beasts in the hordern.
One of the scariest things I’ve ever witnessed.
